SONiVOX has announced the launch of Solina Redux, an Arp Solina string ensemble emulation. It's available at the introductory price of $129.99 USD from May 25th through June 30, 2018, after which, its price will be set at $249.99.

The Arp Solina was the pre-eminent string ensemble in the 1970's, made famous by the Eagles, Elton John, Pink Floyd, The Cure, Joy Division, Tangerine Dream, New Order and many others. Its analog Violin, Viola, Cello, Contra Bass, Trumpet and Horn sounds have a sound that creates rich retro sounding orchestral ensembles, especially with its famous "Ensemble" chorus effect.

Solina Redux gives users access to the original Solina sounds, including a model of the Ensemble chorus effect, but includes a modern virtual analog synthesizer as a sidecar. The combination of these two synthesizers provides a sound palette that is both retro and modern or anything in between at your discretion. Each synth includes a multi-mode filter, amplitude and filter envelopes, LFO modulations and send effects.

To top it off, Solina Redux adds in two fully-programmable step sequencers, one for the Solina instrument and one for the analog synthesizer. Play one note and out comes a modern orchestra. Each step sequencer gives users 'per step' control over the pitch of each note, the volume of each note, the filter cutoff of each note, and the panning of each note. Other controls include gate time, tempo sync, time division, swing, note order and octave shift.

Features:

A two-in-one Arp Solina and Virtual Analog Synthesizer.

Both synths hot-rodded to include multi-mode filters (low-pass, high-pass, band pass, notch, peak) with individual LFO and envelope control.

Three modelled effects including the Solina "Ensemble" effect, phaser, and vibrato.

Two fully-programmable step sequencers including step control over filters and panning.
